Mississippi State vet now offers free eye exams for service dogs

May 9, 2013

Mazie Grace has only been Beverly Hammettâ€™s seeing eye dog for six months, but she already knows Hammettâ€™s needs inside and out.

Hammett said she once came close to accidentally walking into traffic, and Mazie Grace walked in front of her and blocked her from walking into it. She said Mazie Grace also knows how to keep her on balance by keeping an eye out for cracks in the sidewalks. When she was hospitalized recently, she said, Mazie Grace was pacing, waiting for her.
